This film reaches our cinemas very late, because its wide distribution took place at the end of March. Then, for obvious reasons, it was impossible to watch the tape in the cinema. Some call it one of the best films of the year, others call it a multiverse of the madness of a sane person. In short, “Everything everywhere and at once” made a lot of noise.
The plot tells about a woman, Evelyn Wong, who can master the skills of versions of herself in other dimensions of the multiverse. A lot of adventures await her, among which the battle with an enraged Jamie Lee Curtis is especially memorable.
